Well, Columbus never actually came to America. His ship made land in the Bahamas and Cuba. He thought these islands were Asian islands because the people of Spain were unaware of the Americas, and so he wanted gold. He returned to his country and came back with more men. And killed a lot of people.
Anyway, for the sake of the American education system, I'm assuming the word the teacher is wanting is something like "recognized".

Explanation:

The Opponent-Process Theory explains that an individual's perception of colors operates under 3 opposing systems:

  • Black vs. white
  • Red vs. green
  • Blue vs. yellow

An individual perceives a hue based on 2 colors but he/she <em>can only see </em><em>one </em>of these opposing colors at once.

In this case, if you stare at a red star, you are looking at the red vs. green system so once you are done looking at the red, you will see the <em>green afterimage</em> of it, since green opposes red.

fredd [130]
Tortoise differ from turtles in four aspects, but the most important is that tortoises are terrestrial and turtles are from the sea: First, turtles live only 15 to 20 years, the longest 30 years, while tortoises live 100 years on average, reaching one up to 180 years. Second, the turtle has the soft shell to swim, while the tortoise has hard shell to defend itself on land. Third, tortoises are animals with long paws and nails, while turtles have fins and can not walk ashore; finally the turtles are peaceful and calm, while tortoises are adapted to a hostile environment and are brave and ferocious animals.
